Who Am I? by Tania Kaczynski
When everything is lost, imagination is the only place of true freedom. The New Art Studio, co-founded in 2014 by art psychotherapist Tania Kaczynksi, is a unique space in London set up as a lifeline for refugees and asylum seekers so they can experience art therapy in a relaxed, informal atmosphere. Who Am I? is a poignant look at the state of the dispossessed, and at how creating art can provide a last bastion of hope for those who have lost everything. Alongside the unique and touching artwork of the studio’s members are their true stories of bravery, loss and redemption.
There should be more books like this out there as Tania has really unearthed something unique and amazing and vitally important – to remind us how precarious life can be.. We need stories like this in these days of greed and fear, as we have to dive into the lives of others to be able to understand who, what, when, where, why -- King Adz, author of THE STUFF YOU CAN'T BOTTLE
